What does 2FA Protect Against?

What is DUO and How Does it Work?

Duo is a security tool offering 2-factor authenticationvia a mobile phone application. Working with the input of a username and password,a second authentication method is leveraged. For that second authentication method, Duo utilizes one of either:

Push Notification

Phone Call

Text Message

Upon setting up Duo, the admin can choose what the second form of authentication is.

How does Duo Support Zero Trust?

Zero Trust defense is built on the fundamental rule ofdon’t trust anyone.

Duo upholds Zero Trust by assuming any log in attempt is the result of compromised credentials.In order for access to be granted via log in, the user must verify their identity- proving they are who they claim to be. That verification comes from Duo’s mobile application.
